Has anyone else done something similar? Anyone interested in the algorithm? yes. i have done the same. in particular, i was interested in coordinating 6 motors. adapting breshenham's algorithm made the program a piece of cake, and the results were very nice. the major difference was that for graphics, you can get by with a single state variable for the algorithm by subtracting the x and y control variables. with multiple axes, you can't get away with that. -- REALLY, instead of hyping low impact soles, I think what we need are more low impact souls.
